[Z-NE6gfo-03]From Copernicus Marine Operational Services to Digital Twin Ocean Components: The CLS Experience with EDITO
*Fabien Lefèvre (1. CLS (France))
The Digital Twin Ocean aims to make ocean data and services easier to access, use and combine. As part of Copernicus Marine and EDITO, CLS will deploy in the coming months several services developed within three Copernicus Marine Thematic Assembly Centres: Sea Level (SL-TAC), Waves (WAVE-TAC) and Multi-Observations (MOB-TAC). These deployments will bring operational Copernicus Marine expertise into the Digital Twin Ocean environment and help transform established production systems into on-demand cloud services.
For the Sea Level TAC, CLS will deploy MIOST (Multiscale Inversion for Ocean Surface Topography), the operational mapping system used within DUACS-NG (Data Unification and Altimeter Combination System - Next Generation). Integrated into EDITO, it will allow users to generate customized Level-4 sea level and wave products from multi-mission altimetry and SWOT observations for selected regions and periods.
For the Wave TAC, CLS will deploy the operational Level-3 Significant Wave Height production system and develop new user-oriented services, including wave propagation visualizations and a virtual buoy tool, making advanced wave products easier to explore and exploit.
For the Multi-Observation TAC, CLS will deploy two complementary services. ARMOR3D will provide on-demand regional 3D ocean fields, including temperature, salinity, currents and mixed-layer depth. SOCA will use artificial intelligence to generate virtual biogeochemical profiles by combining Argo measurements with ocean-colour and altimetry observations.
These deployments are both challenging and promising. They require adapting mature operational Copernicus Marine processing chains to cloud-native environments that support scalability, interoperability and user-driven applications. The presentation will discuss the opportunities and challenges associated with this transition and share lessons learned from the first deployment activities. It will illustrate how operational ocean services can evolve into reusable Digital Twin Ocean components, supporting future research, innovation and ocean applications within the EDITO ecosystem.
